Nia Jax On Ronda Rousey Making The Jump To WWE And The Importance Of Showing Respect In The Locker Room
WWE Superstar Nia Jax appeared on Busted Open Radio and shared her thoughts on former UFC legend Ronda Rousey crossing over to pro-wrestling. Find out what the Irresistible Force had to say after the jump...
While appearing on Busted Open Radio, Nia Jax was asked for her opinion on Ronda Rousey, who recently made her WWE debut at the Royal Rumble and will officially sign a Raw contract at the Elimination Chamber PPV this Sunday.
The Irresistible Force said she's very excited about The Rowdy One joining the locker room, and is sure she will put the work in and elevate women's wrestling and the brand as a whole.
However, she also makes it a point to mention how important it is to show the right amount of respect upon joining the WWE "family."
“Respect is #1 in this business. You definitely have to walk into the door with a lot of respect: a lot of eye contact, a lot of handshakes, introducing yourself. We are a very tight-knit family at WWE. We are very protective of our family. When an outsider comes in, you want to make sure the outsider is worthy to step into the family. When Sasha Banks says she had nothing nice to say (on a previous episode of Busted Open), it’s not necessarily that she wants to go out and be mean, but rather making sure that this outsider is worthy to step into her family.”
What do you make of Nia's comments? You can check out the video below for more.
Jax is one of the most dominant Superstars on the Raw roster, so there's little doubt that she will cross paths with Rousey at some point. Now there's a match we'd love to see!
